The Chinese government is reportedly paying its citizens to marry Muslims in an attempt to wipe out the Uyghur population living in the country’s north-western region, a recent report showed.
Local authorities in the Xinjiang region have allegedly been blackmailing and bribing Chinese citizens to enter into arranged marriages with Uyghur women as part of the “National Unity, One Family” campaign. Some of the incentives being offered to the interethnic couples include housing and education subsidies, jobs and medical care, according to a report published by the Washington-based nonprofit Uyghur Human Rights Project (UHRP), citing official policy documents, social media posts and interviews with Uyghurs.
